Hey,

How is the IT course at MQ?, is it a good course for networking? how is the maths?

Im tossing up between MQ and UWS

Cheers

How is IT? It looks like theres a lot of Maths involved.
Only have to do 2 units, one 100 level and one 200 level.

the 100 level one is equivalent to 3U maths i think?

Probably something they're interested in?

I'd be interested in doing IT @ Macq. but not too interested in doing a lot of programming and maths.

Well then. IT course = 2 programming subjects in first year - both C++ and 2 more in 2nd year (I think C++ and Java) and more in 3rd year? (I'm not sure about 3rd year lol, haven't checked it out properly yet) and 2 maths subjects, one in first year and another in 2nd year

You've got several networking units, such as COMP247 (Data Communications), COMP347 (Computer Networks) and ELEC345 (Communication Networks) which you can pick for electives, seeing the IT degree requires a fair few. There's a bit of programming to do (COMP115 is a breeze... 125, not so much), but there's also a fair bit of system design and analysis.

Only 2 math units though.
